Alphabetical Extracts of Dos and Don'ts from the Qur’an - Part – 08

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful-

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obey Allah IMMEDIATELY and Don't Delay (Al_Qur’an_002.063)

 

Qur’an is full of Wisdom (Al_Qur’an_036.002)

 

… The Decision is for Allah only … (Al_Qur’an_006.057)

 

… No Change can there be in the words of Allah … (Al_Qur’an_010.064)

 

Qur’an is a light and to see a light, you don't need any other light

 

But to understand Hadeeth you really need Qur’an

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِر

 

And we have indeed made the Qur’an easy to understand and remember, then is there any that will remember (or receive admonition)? (Al_Qur’an_054.017)

 

(Since Allah has said that Qur’an is really easy to understand and remember, we must have to believe it)

 

We know the best what they say, and thou (O Muhammad) art in no wise a compeller over them. But warn by the Qur’an him who feareth my threat. (Al_Qur’an_050.045)

 

And thou wast not (able) to recite a Book before this (Book Came), nor art thou (Able) to transcribe it with thy right hand: In that case, indeed, would the talkers of vanities have doubted. (Al_Qur’an_029.048)

 

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said, the Best of Best among you are those, who Learns and Teaches Qur’an. (Bukhari_Vol_6_Book_61_Hadith_545)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Magician:

 

And cast down what is in your right hand; it shall devour what they have wrought; they have wrought only the plan of a magician, and the magician shall not be successful wheresoever he may come from. (Al_Qur’an_020.069)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Majority may be Wrong:

 

And Musa said: If you disbelieve, along with all the people on earth, most surely Allah is Self-sufficient (in no need), Praised; (Al_Qur’an_014.008)

And if you obey the majority of people on earth, they will lead you astray (divert) from Allah's way; they follow but conjecture and they only lie. (Al_Qur’an_006.116)

 

Most (Majority) of them follow nothing but Conjecture. Conjecture is of no use whatsoever against the truth. Allah most certainly knows what they are doing. (Al_Qur’an_010.036)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marriages: Muslim never marries to Mushrik (Unbelievers):

 

Do not marry Mushrik (unbelieving) women (idolaters), until they believe. (Al_Qur’an_002.221)

 

And give women their dowries as a free gift, but if they of themselves be pleased to give up to you a portion of it, then eat it with enjoyment and with wholesome result. (Al_Qur’an_004.004)

 

And marry not woman whom your fathers married, except what has already passed; this surely is indecent and hateful, and it is an evil way. (Al_Qur’an_004.022)

 

Forbidden to you are your mothers and your daughters and your sisters and your paternal aunts and your maternal aunts and brothers' daughters and sisters' daughters and your mothers that have suckled you (regardless of age) and your foster-sisters and mothers of your wives and your step-daughters who are in your guardianship, (born) of your wives to whom you have gone in, but if you have not gone in to them, there is no blame on you (in marrying them), and the wives of your sons who are of your own loins and that you should have two sisters together, except what has already passed; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Qur’an_004.023)

 

And all married women except those whom your right hands possess (this is) Allah's ordinance to you, and lawful for you are (all women) besides those, provided that you seek (them) with your property, taking (them) in marriage not committing fornication. Then as to those whom you profit by, give them their dowries as appointed; and there is no blame on you about what you mutually agree after what is appointed; surely Allah is Knowing, Wise. (Al_Qur’an_004.024)

 

And whoever among you has not within his power ampleness of means to marry free believing women, then (he may marry) of those whom your right hands possess from among your believing maidens; and Allah knows best your faith: you are (sprung) the one from the other; so marry them with the permission of their masters, and give them their dowries justly, they being chaste, not fornicating, nor receiving paramours; and when they are taken in marriage, then if they are guilty of indecency, they shall suffer half the punishment which is (inflicted) upon free women. This is for him among you who fears falling into evil; and that you abstain is better for you, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Qur’an_004.025)

 

This day are (all) good things made lawful for you. The food of those who have received the Scripture is lawful for you, and your food is lawful for them. And so are the virtuous women of the believers and the virtuous women of those who received the Scripture before you (lawful for you) when ye give them their marriage portions and live with them in honor, not in fornication, nor taking them as secret concubines. Whoso denieth the faith, his work is vain and he will be among the losers in the Hereafter. (Al_Qur’an_005.005)

 

Solutions to Anger among Spouses, after all Human being:

 

Seek refuge in Allah, ask Allah for forgiveness and forgive and hug your spouse with love. It is human nature to become angry BUT don't be angry from your spouse for more than 3 minutes, think positive and remember his kindness to help to forget the anger. Give SMILE and HUG with love and say sorry as well. May Allah protect all us from ANGER. AMEEN.

 

… But consort with them in kindness, for if ye hate them it may happen that ye hate a thing wherein Allah hath placed much good. (Al_Qur’an_004.019).

 

Remember:

 

1>    Certain words could act as Bullying, and may lead to separation. So always avoid loose talk, this is not Love.

 

2>    Life lasts for a short time and one may die, leaving spouse and kids behind. What could happen if you die and your kids become orphans? Who will be helping them if the kids lose their father? Who will be helping them if the kids lose their mother? Life is a test and any one may face those situations. We should train ourselves and our future generations to help those kids by accepting them as their kids. If they lost their father, and you can become step-father go for it, but only for the love of Allah. If they lost their mother, and you can become step-mother go for it, but only for the love of Allah.

 

And let those fear who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would fear on their account, so let them be careful of (their duty to) Allah, and let them speak right words. (Al_Qur’an_004.009)

 

In Brief: Marriage is not a joke nor a play, instead it is only for the love of Allah and Sunnah of Rasool Allah (saw).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Materialistic World:

 

And do not stretch your eyes after that with which We have provided different classes of them, (of) the splendor of this world's life, that We may thereby try them; and the sustenance (given) by your Lord is better and more abiding. (Al_Qur’an_020.131)

 

O you who believe! surely from among your wives and your children there is an enemy to you; therefore beware of them; and if you pardon and forbear and forgive, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. Your possessions and your children are only a trial, and Allah it is with Whom is a great reward. Therefore be careful of (your duty to) Allah as much as you can, and hear and obey and spend, it is better for your souls; and whoever is saved from the greediness of his soul, these it is that are the successful. (Al_Qur’an_064.014-016)

 

O you who believe! let not your wealth, or your children, divert you from the remembrance of Allah; and whoever does that, these are the losers. (Al_Qur’an_063.009)

 

And let not their property (wealth) and their children excite your admiration; Allah only wishes to chastise them with these in this world and (that) their souls may depart while they are disbelievers. (Al_Qur’an_009.085)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Measure: Muslim Always Measures in Justice:

Give full measure and full weight, in justice. (Al_Qur’an_006.152)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Menstruation / Periods:

 

And they ask you about menstruation. Say: It is a discomfort; therefore keep aloof from the women during the menstrual discharge and do not go near them until they have become clean; then when they have cleansed themselves, go in to them as Allah has commanded you; surely Allah loves those who turn much (to Him), and He loves those who purify themselves. (Al_Qur’an_002.222)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Messengers: Every Nation had a Messenger / Prophet: Last Messenger:

 

Surely Allah and His angels bless the Prophet; O you who believe! call for (Divine) blessings on him and salute him with a (becoming) salutation. (Al_Qur’an_033.056)

 

And your Lord creates and chooses whom He pleases; to choose is not theirs; glory be to Allah, and exalted be He above what they associate (with Him). (Al_Qur’an_028.068)

 

We have sent you out of mercy from us towards the whole world. (Al_Qur’an_021.107)

 

And We have not sent you but to all the men as a bearer of good news and as a warner, but most men do not know. (Al_Qur’an_034.028)

 

Say: We believe in Allah and what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq and Yaqoub and the tribes, and what was given to Musa and Isa and to the prophets from their Lord; we do not make any distinction between any of them, and to Him do we submit. (Al_Qur’an_003.084)

 

And every nation had a messenger; so when their messenger came, the matter was decided between them with justice and they shall not be dealt with unjustly. (Al_Qur’an_010.047)

 

And certainly We raised in every nation a messenger saying: Serve Allah and shun the Shaitan. So there were some of them whom Allah guided and there were others against whom error was due; therefore travel in the land, then see what was the end of the rejecters. (Al_Qur’an_016.036)

 

Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of Allah and the Last of the prophets; and Allah is cognizant of all things. (Al_Qur’an_033.040)

 

Forbidden to you is that which dies of itself, and blood, and flesh of swine, and that on which any other name than that of Allah has been invoked, and the strangled (animal) and that beaten to death, and that killed by a fall and that killed by being smitten with the horn, and that which wild beasts have eaten, except what you slaughter, and what is sacrificed on stones set up (for idols) and that you divide by the arrows; that is a transgression. This day have those who disbelieve despaired of your religion, so fear them not, and fear Me. This day have I perfected for you your religion and completed My favor on you and chosen for you Islam as a religion; but whoever is compelled by hunger, not inclining willfully to sin, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Qur’an_005.003)

 

Surely those who disbelieve in Allah and His messengers and (those who) desire to make a distinction between Allah and His messengers and say: We believe in some and disbelieve in others, and desire to take a course between (this and) that. These it is that are truly unbelievers, and We have prepared for the unbelievers a disgraceful chastisement. (Al_Qur’an_004.150-151)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Migration: Muslim does migration if needed:

 

When angels take the souls of those who die in sin against their souls, they say: "In what (plight) were ye?" They reply: "Weak and oppressed were we in the earth." They say: "Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to move yourselves away (From evil)?" Such men will find their abode in Hell, - What an evil refuge! - (Al_Qur’an_004.097)

 

And those who emigrated (leave their homes) for Allah's sake after they are oppressed, We will most certainly give them a good abode in the world, and the reward of the hereafter is certainly much greater, did they but know; Those who are patient and on their Lord do they trust. (Al_Qur’an_016.041-042)

 

O my bondmen who believe! Lo! My earth is spacious. Therefore serve Me only. How many are the creatures that carry not their own sustenance? (Al_Qur’an_029.052-063)

 

(If Kafir stops you from offering Prayers then migrate, Allah's earth is spacious. Do not worry about sustenance  (rizk). Now let us see how Muhammad (SAW) implemented this. As you know Muhammad (SAW) migrated from Makkah al-Mukarramah ( مكة المكرمة) to Madina and never ever think to return. This is the Great secret of migration, so Allah has given such a great reward by turning Makkah al-Mukarramah ( مكة المكرمة) into the center place for all Muslims. In brief, no fighting for the land)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mind Your Language: Language:

 

Allah does NOT love the public utterance of hurtful speech (language) unless (it be) by one to whom injustice has been done; and Allah is Hearing, Knowing. (Al_Qur’an_004.148)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Misfortune: The Reason for Misfortune:

 

Whatever misfortune happens to you, is because on the things your hands have wrought. (Al_Qur’an_042.030)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Murder: Punishments for Murder or other wounds:

 

We need to remember that Saving a Life is like Saving the Whole World. (Ref. Al_Qur’an_005.032).

 

And there is life for you in (the law of) retaliation (Qisaas), O men of understanding, that you may guard yourselves. (Al_Qur’an_002.179)

 

They are lost indeed who kill their children foolishly without knowledge, and forbid what Allah has given to them forging a lie against Allah; they have indeed gone astray, and they are not the followers of the right course. (Al_Qur’an_006.140)

 

Say: Come I will recite what your Lord has forbidden to you-- (remember) that you do not associate anything with Him and show kindness to your parents, and do not slay your children for (fear of) poverty-- We provide for you and for them-- and do not draw nigh to indecencies, those of them which are apparent and those which are concealed, and do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden except for the requirements of justice; this He has enjoined you with that you may understand. (Al_Qur’an_006.151)

 

And We prescribed to them in it that life is for life, and eye for eye, and nose for nose, and ear for ear, and tooth for tooth, and (that there is) reprisal in wounds; but he who foregoes it, it shall be an expiation for him; and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the unjust. (Al_Qur’an_005.045)

 

O you who believe! retaliation is prescribed for you in the matter of the slain, the free for the free, and the slave for the slave, and the female for the female, but if any remission is made to any one by his (aggrieved) brother, then prosecution (for the bloodwit) should be made according to usage, and payment (Qisaas) should be made to him in a good manner; this is an alleviation from your Lord and a mercy; so whoever exceeds the limit after this he shall have a painful chastisement. (Al_Qur’an_002.178)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Music, Songs, Poetry, Stories, Novels, Movies, Theater, Drama etc:

 

And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, songs, poetry, stories, novels, movies, theaters, dramas etc.) to mislead from the path of Allah without knowledge, and takes it ( the path of Allah, the Verses of the Qur’an) by way of mockery. For such there will be a humiliating torment (in the Hell-Fire). [Al_Qur’an_031.006]

 

And excite [befool them gradually] any of them whom you can with your voice (i.e. music, songs, poetry, stories, novels, movies, theaters, dramas and other call for Allah's disobedience.), and urge their horse and foot against them, and be a partner in their wealth and children, and promise them. Satan promises them only to deceive. [Al_Qur’an_017.064]

 

The Day of Resurrection draws near, None besides Allah can avert it, (or advance it, or delay it). Do you then wonder this recital (the Qur’an)? And you laugh at it and weep not, Wasting your (precious) lifetime in pastime and amusements (i.e. music, songs, poetry, stories, novels, movies, theaters, dramas etc.). So fall you down in prostration to Allah, and worship Him (Alone). (Al_Qur’an_053.057-062)

 

(My suggestion will be to get rid of those Indian, western and all other music, songs CDs and videos and fill your library with Islamic Collections).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Neighbor etc.:

 

So woe to the praying ones, Who are unmindful (neglectful) of their prayers, Who do (good) to be seen (only show off), But refuse (to supply) (even) neighbourly needs. (Al_Qur’an_107.004-007)

 

If the debtor is in a difficulty, grant him time Till it is easy for him to repay. But if you remit it by way of charity, that is best for you if you only knew. (Al_Qur’an_002.280)

 

Then give to the near of kin his due, and to the needy and the wayfarer (Traveler); this is best for those who desire Allah's pleasure, and these it is who are successful. (Al_Qur’an_030.038)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nicknames: BAD Nicknames:

 

You who believe! People should not ridicule others who may be better than themselves; nor should any women ridicule other women who may be better than themselves. And do not find fault with one another or insult each other with derogatory nicknames. How evil it is to have a name for evil conduct after coming to faith! Those people who do not turn from it are wrongdoers. (Al_Qur’an_049.011)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oath / Baaith / Promises: Fulfill your Promises with Allah and Enter into Islaam Completely:

 

And when We made a covenant with you and raised the mountain over you: Take hold of what We have given you with firmness and be obedient. They said: We hear and disobey. And they were made to imbibe (the love of) the calf into their hearts on account of their unbelief Say: Evil is that which your belief bids you if you are believers. (Al_Qur’an_002.093)

 

O Prophet! when believing women come to you giving you a pledge that they will not associate aught with Allah, and will not steal, and will not commit fornication, and will not kill their children, and will not bring a calumny which they have forged of themselves, and will not disobey you in what is good, accept their pledge, and ask forgiveness for them from Allah; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Qur’an_060.012)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obey Allah IMMEDIATELY and Don't Delay:

 

And (remember, O children of Israel) when We made a convent with you and caused the Mount to tower above you, (saying): Hold fast that which We have given you, and remember that which is therein, that ye may ward of (evil). (Al_Qur’an_002.063)

 

And among mankind is he who worships Allah upon a narrow marge so that if good befalls him he is satisfied therewith, but if a trial afflict him, he turns back away utterly. He loses both the world and the Hereafter. That is the real (great) loss. (Al_Qur’an_022.011)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obey Allah and his Messenger (SAW):

 

O ye who believe! Obey Allah and His Messenger (SAW), and turn not away from him when ye hear (him speak). Be not as those who say, We hear, and they hear not. Lo! The worst of beasts in Allah's sight are the deaf, the dumb, who have no sense. (Al_Qur’an_008.020 – 022)

 

O you who believe! obey Allah and obey the Messenger, and do not make your deeds of no effect (by disobeying Allah and his Messenger). (Al_Qur’an_047.033)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Options not allowed upon Allah's and his Messenger's (SAW) decision:

 

It is not fitting for a Believer, men or women, when a matter has been decided by Allah and His Messenger, to have any option about their decision: if anyone disobeys Allah and His Messenger (SAW), he is indeed on a clearly wrong Path. (Al_Qur’an_033.036)

None can dispute about the Signs of Allah but the Unbelievers. Let not, then, strutting about through the land deceive thee! (Al_Qur’an_040.004)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Order of Allah: Be and it is:

 

Our word for a thing when We intend it, is only that We say to it, Be, and it is. (Al_Qur’an_016.040)

 

… The Decision (Command / Judgment) is for Allah only … (Al_Qur’an_006.057)

 

And recite (and teach) what has been revealed to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can change his words, and none wilt thou find as a refuge other than him. (Al_Qur’an_018.027).

 

But when our Clear Signs are rehearsed unto them, those who rest not their hope on their meeting with Us, say: bring us reading other than this, or change this, say: it is not for me, of my own accord, to change it: I follow Naught but what is revealed unto me (as is): if I were to disobey my Lord, I should myself fear the Penalty of a great day (to come). Say: If Allah had to willed, I should not have rehearsed it to you, nor would he have made it known to you. A whole lifetime before this have I tarried amongst you: will ye not then understand? (Al_Qur’an_010.015 – 016)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Orphans: Muslim Always Helps Orphans and Needy:

 

And let those fear who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would fear on their account, so let them be careful of (their duty to) Allah, and let them speak right words. (Al_Qur’an_004.009)

 

It is NOT righteousness that ye turn your faces to the East and the West; BUT righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and the Angels and the Scripture and the Prophets; and gives his wealth, for love of Him(Allah), to Kinsfolk and to Orphans and the Needy and the Wayfarer and to those who ask, and to set slaves free; and observes proper worship and pays the poor due. And those who keep their treaty when they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of stress. Such are they who are SINCERE. Such are the God fearing. (Al_Qur’an_002.177)

 

Therefore, as for the orphan, do not oppress (him). And as for him who asks, do not chide (him), And as for the favor of your Lord, do announce (rehearse and proclaim it). (Al_Qur’an_093.009-011)

 

And let those fear who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would fear on their account, so let them be careful of (their duty to) Allah, and let them speak right words. (Al_Qur’an_004.009)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Parents: Muslim Never says a word of contempt to his Old Parents:

Thy Lord hath decreed that ye worship none but Him, and that ye be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in thy life, say not to them a word of contempt, nor repel them, but address them in terms of honor. (Al_Qur’an_017.023)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Patience: Be Patience after doing Da’wah:

 

O you who believe! seek assistance through patience and prayer; surely Allah is with the patient. (Al_Qur’an_002.153)

 

And the good deed and the evil deed are not alike. Repel (evil) with what is best, when lo! he between whom and you was enmity would be as if he were a warm friend. And none are made to receive it but those who are patient, and none are made to receive it but those who have a mighty good fortune. (Al_Qur’an_041.034-035)

 

Thus, you should not grieve over anything you miss, nor be proud of anything He has bestowed upon you. GOD does not love those who are boastful, proud. (Al_Qur’an_057.023)

 

If a person has faith on Allah, he must be doing Righteous Deeds and also he must be doing Dawah (mutual teaching of Truth). Then of course, on every truth, people may react badly. So at this time one should be very patience. This is one of the fundamentals of teaching of Islaam.

 

Al_Qur’an: Surat Al_Asr_103:

 

Ayah - 1>       By Time

 

Ayah - 2>       Verily Man is in loss

 

Ayah - 3>       Except those who have Faith, and do righteous deeds, and (joint together) in the mutual teaching of Truth, and of Patience and Constancy.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Peace Process:

 

And if they incline to peace, then incline to it and trust in Allah; surely He is the Hearing, the Knowing. (Al_Qur’an_008.061)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Periods / Menstruation:

 

And they ask you about menstruation. Say: It is a discomfort; therefore keep aloof from the women during the menstrual discharge and do not go near them until they have become clean; then when they have cleansed themselves, go in to them as Allah has commanded you; surely Allah loves those who turn much (to Him), and He loves those who purify themselves. (Al_Qur’an_002.222)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Persecute / Harass:

 

Surely (as for) those who persecute (harass) the believing men and the believing women, then do not repent, they shall have the chastisement of hell, and they shall have the chastisement of burning. (Al_Qur’an_085.010)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Pickpocket / Thief / Robber / Burglar / Shoplifter: Cut or Cutoff Hand a Controversial Issue:

 

Even a Murderers get relief after paying reasonable amount money etc (Qisaas). Is there any chance for forgiveness for Thief: Think of if a person steels and caught at around the age of 20, BUT his / her life could be around 90, so because of this CUTOFF Hand, he / she will become handicap for the rest of his life, and it will be big burden on the whole community.

 

And (as for) the man who steals and the woman who steals, cut off their hands as a punishment for what they have earned, an exemplary punishment from Allah; and Allah is Mighty, Wise. But whoever repents after his iniquity and reforms (himself), then surely Allah will turn to him (mercifully); surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Qur’an_005.038-039)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pilgrimage / Hajj: Hajj is not Transferable:

 

For Hajj are the months well known. If any one undertakes that duty therein, Let there be no obscenity, nor wickedness, nor wrangling in the Hajj. And whatever good ye do, (be sure) God knoweth it. And take a provision (With you) for the journey, but the best of provisions is right conduct. So fear Me, o ye that are wise. It is no crime in you if ye seek of the bounty of your Lord (during pilgrimage). Then when ye pour down from (Mount) Arafat, celebrate the praises of God at the Sacred Monument, and celebrate His praises as He has directed you, even though, before this, ye went astray. (Al_Qur’an_002.197-198)

 

You will get reward of what you yourself used to do. (Al_Qur’an_036.054, 045.028)

 

Every Hajj is Hajj-e-Akbar and every Umrah is Hajj-e-Asghar (Ref: Al_Qur’an_009:003)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Poverty:

 

So give what is due to relatives, the needy, and the traveler. (Al_Qur’an_030.038)

 

It is NOT righteousness that ye turn your faces to the East and the West; BUT righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and the Angels and the Scripture and the Prophets; and gives his wealth, for love of Him(Allah), to Kinsfolk and to Orphans and the Needy and the Wayfarer and to those who ask, and to set slaves free; and observes proper worship and pays the poor due. And those who keep their treaty when they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of stress. Such are they who are SINCERE. Such are the God fearing. (Al_Qur’an_002.177)

 

O you who believe! spend (benevolently) of the good things that you earn and or what We have brought forth for you out of the earth, and do not aim at what is bad that you may spend (in alms) of it, while you would not take it yourselves unless you have its price lowered, and know that Allah is Self-sufficient, Praiseworthy. (Al_Qur’an_002.267)

 

(Charity is) for the poor who are confined in the way of Allah-- they cannot go about in the land; the ignorant man thinks them to be rich on account of (their) abstaining (from begging); you can recognise them by their mark; they do not beg from men importunately; and whatever good thing you spend, surely Allah knows it. (Al_Qur’an_002.273)

 

Charities are only for the poor and the needy, and the officials (appointed) over them, and those whose hearts are made to incline (to truth) and the (ransoming of) captives and those in debts and in the way of Allah and the wayfarer; an ordinance from Allah; and Allah is knowing, Wise. (Al_Qur’an_009.060)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Practical Religion: Islaam is a Practical Religion and not a Verbal Religion:

 

And return to your Lord time after time and submit to Him before there comes to you the punishment, then you shall not be helped. And follow (practically) the best that has been revealed (Qur’an) to you from your Lord before there comes to you the punishment all of a sudden while you do not even perceive; Lest a soul should say: O woe to me! for what I fell short of my duty to Allah, and most surely I was of those who laughed to scorn; Or it should say: Had Allah guided me, I would certainly have been of those who guard (against evil); (Al_Qur’an_039.054-057)

 

O you who believe! why do you say that which you do not do? (Al_Qur’an_061.002)

 

The likeness of those who were charged with the Taurat, then they did not observe (practice) it, is as the likeness of the ass (donkey) bearing books, evil is the likeness of the people who reject the communications of Allah; and Allah does not guide the unjust people. (Al_Qur’an_062.005)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Practicing Islam: Muslim Always Practices Islam:

 

O you who believe! why do you say that which you do not do? (Al_Qur’an_061.002)

 

The likeness of those who were charged with the Taurat, then they did not observe (practice) it, is as the likeness of the ass (donkey) bearing books, evil is the likeness of the people who reject the communications of Allah; and Allah does not guide the unjust people. (Al_Qur’an_062.005)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prayers: One is not Muslim by just offering Prayers or performing Hajj:

 

And your Lord says: "Call on Me; I will answer your (Prayers). (Al_Qur’an_040.060)

 

(Ask directly from Allah for all help. No need to do shirk. Only Ya Allah Help)

 

Say: My Lord has enjoined justice, and set upright your faces at every time of prayer and call on Him, being sincere to Him in obedience; as He brought you forth in the beginning, so shall you also return. (Al_Qur’an_007.029)

 

It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfill the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the Allah-fearing. (Al_Qur’an_002.177)

 

In the gardens they will ask one in the Hell, What led you into Hell Fire? They will answer: We were not of those who prayed. Then will no intercession of (any) intercessors profit them.  (Al_Qur’an_074.040-048)

 

Enter into Islam whole-heartedly, and follow not the footsteps of the evil one. (Al_Qur’an_002.208)

 

(One Person came to Muhammad (SAW) and asked I want to accept Islaam, but I don't want to offer Prayer, don't want to pay Zakaat, don't want to do any thing. Muhammad (SAW) said if you want to accept Islaam, you must have to come for Prayers. And time showed that the same person took part in every part of Islaam actively.)

 

Without Prayers Muhammad (SAW) didn't accept any one's Islaam.

 

Prayers during the Battle:

 

When you are travelling in the land, there is nothing wrong in your shortening your prayer if you fear that those who disbelieve may harass you. The disbelievers are your clear-cut enemies.  (Al_Qur’an_004.101)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preach: Da’wah: Muslim Always Do Preaches:

 

Ye are the best of peoples, evolved for mankind, enjoining what is right, forbidding what is wrong, and believing in Allah. If only the People of the Book had faith, it was best for them: among them are some who have faith, but most of them are perverted transgressors. (Al_Qur’an_003.110)

 

O ye who believe! Save yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel is Men and Stones, over which are (appointed) angels stern (and) severe, who flinch not (from executing) the Commands they receive from Allah, but do (precisely) what they are commanded. (Al_Qur’an_066.006)

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Promises / Baaith / Oath: Fulfill your Promises with Allah and Enter into Islaam Completely:

 

And when We made a covenant with you and raised the mountain over you: Take hold of what We have given you with firmness and be obedient. They said: We hear and disobey. And they were made to imbibe (the love of) the calf into their hearts on account of their unbelief Say: Evil is that which your belief bids you if you are believers. (Al_Qur’an_002.093)

 

O Prophet! when believing women come to you giving you a pledge that they will not associate aught with Allah, and will not steal, and will not commit fornication, and will not kill their children, and will not bring a calumny which they have forged of themselves, and will not disobey you in what is good, accept their pledge, and ask forgiveness for them from Allah; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Qur’an_060.012)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prophecy: Every Nation had a Prophet / Messenger: Last Messenger:

 

And every nation had a messenger; so when their messenger came, the matter was decided between them with justice and they shall not be dealt with unjustly. (Al_Qur’an_010.047)

 

And certainly We raised in every nation a messenger saying: Serve Allah and shun the Shaitan. So there were some of them whom Allah guided and there were others against whom error was due; therefore travel in the land, then see what was the end of the rejecters. (Al_Qur’an_016.036)

 

Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of Allah and the Last of the prophets; and Allah is cognizant of all things. (Al_Qur’an_033.040)

 

Forbidden to you is that which dies of itself, and blood, and flesh of swine, and that on which any other name than that of Allah has been invoked, and the strangled (animal) and that beaten to death, and that killed by a fall and that killed by being smitten with the horn, and that which wild beasts have eaten, except what you slaughter, and what is sacrificed on stones set up (for idols) and that you divide by the arrows; that is a transgression. This day have those who disbelieve despaired of your religion, so fear them not, and fear Me. This day have I perfected for you your religion and completed My favor on you and chosen for you Islam as a religion; but whoever is compelled by hunger, not inclining willfully to sin, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. (Al_Qur’an_005.003)

 

Say: We believe in Allah and (in) that which had been revealed to us, and (in) that which was revealed to Ibrahim and Ismail and Ishaq and Yaqoub and the tribes, and (in) that which was given to Musa and Isa, and (in) that which was given to the prophets from their Lord, we do not make any distinction between any of them, and to Him do we submit. (Al_Qur’an_002.136)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Proud:

 

And do not turn your face away from people in arrogance, nor walk proudly in the land; surely Allah does not love any arrogant boaster; (Al_Qur’an_031.018)

 

Thus, you should not grieve over anything you miss, nor be proud of anything He has bestowed upon you. GOD does not love those who are boastful, proud. (Al_Qur’an_057.023)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Punishments: Punishments or Benefits of DEEDS are NOT Transferable:

 

And return to your Lord time after time and submit to Him before there comes to you the punishment, then you shall not be helped. And follow the best that has been revealed to you from your Lord before there comes to you the punishment all of a sudden while you do not even perceive; Lest a soul should say: O woe to me! for what I fell short of my duty to Allah, and most surely I was of those who laughed to scorn; Or it should say: Had Allah guided me, I would certainly have been of those who guard (against evil); (Al_Qur’an_039.054-057)

 

You will get reward of what you yourself used to do. (Al_Qur’an_036.054, 045.028)

 

Don't get confused with following Ayaat. Here the Topic is Janaaza, the last honor:

 

And never offer prayer (Salaat-ul-Janaaza) for any one of them who dies and do not stand by his grave; surely they disbelieve in Allah and His Messenger (SAW) and they shall die in transgression. [Al_Qur’an_009.084]

 

One day we shall raise from all peoples a witness: then will no excuse be accepted from Unbelievers, nor will they receive any favors. When the wrongdoers (actually) see the penalty, then it will not be made light for them, nor will they be reprieved. (Al_Qur’an_016.084 – 085)

 

Whatever misfortune happens to you, is because on the things your hands have wrought. (Al_Qur’an_042.030)
